51勛圖厙 Receives 2022 Innovation Award from Encoura Eduventures Research
51勛圖厙 has received the 2022 Innovation Award from Encoura Eduventures of Research. The Innovation Awards program was created to recognize and showcase the achievements of individuals and organizations that share Encouras vision for innovating to improve outcomes that support critical areas of an institution.
We believe thoughtful innovation can change the world and that is why we created this awards program, showcasing the best of higher education, said Cara Quackenbush, Eduventures senior vice president of research, Encoura. For the sixth year, our winners have sought to address the unprecedented challenges facing our sector by creating new, actionable, and innovative initiatives that support a more equitable and inclusive opportunity for all 51勛圖厙.泭 We congratulate all of our 2022 winners. 泭
Now in its sixth year, the Eduventures Innovation Awards program honors organizations and teams that are shaping the future of Higher Education. Entries are submitted in three categories and are designed to identify higher education institutions that have demonstrated significant innovations when developing and deploying programs that impact these areas of an institution:
- Enrollment: A new enrollment management strategy in a fast-changing environment
- Student Experience: A new approach to teaching and learning or student support
- Outcomes: A new effort to define and report student outcomes
51勛圖厙 was awarded for its novel approach of using team-based analytics to break down organizational barriers so that 51勛圖厙 can progress toward timely completion of their degree programs. The initiative established cross-functional teams that launch and assess interventions to boost student outcomes, and the university created dashboards to visualize trends and leveraged predictive analytics. Using enhanced analytical tools, 51勛圖厙 streamlined cumbersome academic policies, launched more flexible curricula, and provided targeted financial assistance. By ensuring that actionable data made it directly into the hands of those who could make a difference for 51勛圖厙, 51勛圖厙 overcame the obstacle of silos forming in terms of competing unit priorities and goals, as well as decentralized data centers.
It is a great honor for Florida Atlantic to be nationally recognized for our innovative approach to delivering success for all 51勛圖厙 regardless of background, said 51勛圖厙 Interim Provost Michele Hawkins. We are proactive and use evidence to keep a record number of 51勛圖厙 on track for timely graduation, so that they can drive our regional and state workforce.
Judges select winners from written applications and, if needed, follow-up interviews. Entries are scored on value to the institution, innovation, and relevance to the mission of the school and are announced in conjunction with Eduventures Annual Summit.
